Meaning sunrise in Tsonga, Tanda Tula Rishilé Camp inspires new beginnings and connections within a contemporary African setting.
Designed with a minimal footprint in the yet-to-be explored Klaserie Private Nature Reserve, Rishilé encourages family and friends to come together in nature. Here, connections are fostered between guests, our team and the wild.
It was great sleeping in a tent, the noise of the winds mixing up with elephants breaking branches just next to the tent and lions growling. Bishop, the field cook, made incredible food, which we are trying to replicate back home. It will remain one of our strongest travel experiences.

So hard to say goodbye!
It was at this lodge that I felt like I learned the most about the people of this area. They are kind and grateful. I wished I could bottle this up and bring it home! There was certainly a feeling of family with these people when I left, and leaving was difficult. I will miss them, but also remember them for the rest of my life.
